I was a journalism major at one point.....but then I decided psychologists make more moneys and I'm equally interested in it, in fact I'm enjoying my time on campus more in this field than journalism.

If you enjoy writing though, I suggest you take a few classes, talk to the professors about outside writing opportunities maybe write for an amatuer online journal, theres all kinds of things you can do with writing on the side.

As for a new major.....I suggest psychology. You can do TONS of things with a psych degree, you do not nessecarily have to be a counsler, even combine that with writing and join in on all the prestigious online psych happenings. Its not a hard field actually because it's not all "by-the-book" its part teachings with some of your own thoughts on things.
